The Tower That Ate People - Peter Gabriel

The Tower That Ate People

 

The Tower That Ate People (Live) it kicks ass!

 

Red Planet Remix I prefer the OG but this is good too=^.^=

 

All the music I used on YouTube The List

 

[Verse 1]

There's a bump in the basement

There's a knocking on the wall

In the pumping of the pistons

I swear I heard you call

 

[Verse 2]

There's a bump in the basement

There's a hole in the floor

There's a guard in the garden

Locking up the door

 

[Verse 3]

There's a rumble in the floorboards

No shutting out the sound

And the workers down below me

Digging underground

 

[Verse 4]

Feel the building all around me

Like a wrap of armoured skin

But the more we are protected

The more we're trapped within

 

[Interlude]

We’re building up and up

We’re building up and up

We’re building up and up

We’re building up and up

'Til we can touch the sky

 

[Chorus]

Tell it like it is

'Til there's no misunderstanding

When you strip it right back

Man feed machine

Machine feed man

 

[Chorus]

Tell it like it is

(And on this land, we cast our fortune)

'Til there's no misunderstanding

(And on this ground, we make our home)

You make up what you like

Man feed machine

Machine feed man
